Smoker house build question.
« on: December 26, 2012, 10:09:55 AM »
I was going to be helping a buddy build a smoke house and he can get cedar very cheap and we were wondering if it would be a good option or not? Any help would be great, thanks.

Cedar is a great choice. I used pine only because it was 1/3 the price of cedar. Build away!!!

Just smoke the "yit" out of it ahead of time. Run multiple pans of wood through the smoker prior to smoking your first batch of meat...

I haven't gone blind yet?!  After I'm done rubbing my meat and reached the peak of being done I let my meat rest for awhile before I touch it again!LOL. Time when were you going to tell me you were working on a smoker?  I couldve brought mine and we couldve smoked out for the day and not marijuana. :chuckle:
